About Catherine

I am very passionate about working with children and teens with intellectual disabilities and autism, drawn to their honesty, individuality, and often overlooked understanding of the world and strong emotional intellect. As a caretaker, I bring patience, strong communication, adaptability, and a creative, intuitive approach to meeting each person where they are. I've had the privilege of witnessing much meaningful progress-from growing confidence to new social and communication skills to creatively or athletically developed abilities. I find deep fulfillment in creating a space where each person feels understood, capable, and valued.
